| Item 7.01 | Regulation FD Disclosure. |
As previously disclosed, at the special meeting
of Churchill Capital Corp VI (the “Company”) to be held at 10:00 a.m., Eastern Time, on May 11, 2023 (the “Special
Meeting”), the Company’s stockholders will be asked to vote on the following proposals: (1) to amend the Company’s
amended and restated certificate of incorporation (the “Certificate of Incorporation”) to extend the date by which
the Company must consummate an initial business combination (the “Business Combination”) from May 17, 2023 to February
17, 2024 (the “Extension”, and such proposal, the “Extension Amendment Proposal”), and (2) to adjourn
the Special Meeting to a later date or dates, if necessary, to permit further solicitation and vote of proxies if, at the time of the
Special Meeting, there are not sufficient votes to approve the Extension Amendment Proposal or if the Company determines that additional
time is necessary to effectuate the Extension (the “Adjournment Proposal”).
On May 5, 2023, the Company issued a press release,
a copy of which is attached as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report and incorporated herein by reference, announcing that Churchill Sponsor
VI LLC (the “Sponsor”) will make monthly deposits directly to the trust account (the “Trust Account”)
of the Company in the amount of $500,000 per month (each deposit, a “Contribution”) following the approval
and implementation of the Extension Amendment Proposal on the terms described below. Such Contributions will be made pursuant to a non-interest
bearing, unsecured promissory note (the “Promissory Note”), which will be issued by the Company to the Sponsor following
the Special Meeting if the Extension is implemented.
If the Extension Amendment Proposal is approved
and the Extension is implemented, under the proposed terms of the Promissory Note, such Contributions will be paid monthly beginning on
May 17, 2023 and thereafter on the seventeenth day of each month (or if such seventeenth day is not a business day, on the business day
immediately preceding such seventeenth day) until the earliest to occur of (i) the consummation of the Business Combination, (ii) February
15, 2024 and (iii) if the Business Combination is not consummated, the date on which the Company’s board of directors determines,
in its sole discretion, to liquidate the Trust Account. The Promissory Note will mature on the earlier of (1) the date the Company consummates
the Business Combination and (2) the date that the winding up of the Company is effective (such date, the “Maturity Date”).
The Promissory Note will not bear any interest, and will be repayable by the Company to the Sponsor upon the Maturity Date. The Maturity
Date may be accelerated upon the occurrence of an “Event of Default” (as defined in the Promissory Note). Any outstanding
principal under the Promissory Note will be able to be prepaid at any time by the Company, at its election and without penalty.
The funds in the Trust Account are currently
held in an interest bearing demand deposit account. The interest rate on such deposit account is currently approximately 4.70% per
annum, but such deposit account carries a variable rate, and the Company cannot assure investors that such rate will not decrease or
increase significantly.
The
information in this Item 7.01, including Exhibit 99.1, is furnished and shall not be deemed “filed” for purposes of Section
18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), or otherwise subject to liabilities under
that section, and shall not be deemed to be incorporated by reference into the filings of the Company under the Securities Act
of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) or the Exchange Act, regardless of any general incorporation language in
such filings. This Current Report on Form 8-K will not be deemed an admission as to the materiality of any information of the information
in this Item 7.01, including Exhibit 99.1.
